[E]conomist.com: Democracy in America. I have fun there, as time permits; there’s a surprisingly strong commenter community that keeps drawing me back. I truly wish the Clausewitz blog had been a contender here, but it seems to be having a lot of trouble getting started. I suppose it’s suffering the friction of warblogging.

[F]avstar.fm. I like to see who’s favorited and retweeted my stuff for the obvious ego reasons, but more importantly because people who like my CSS and other technical stuff are often people I might like to follow. Similar interests, and all that. The very close runner-up in this category is obviously [F]lickr, and it would probably take top billing some days.

[H]iderefer. I hacked WordPress (via a plugin) so links on my Dashboard are routed through Hiderefer. This avoids giving away the location of my WordPress install to malicious sites that manage to get comments into the approval queue. In doing this Letter Sweep, I discovered that I need to update the plugin to use Nullrefer instead, so I just did.

[I]MDB. I don’t get to watch a lot of movies these days, nor do I actually think I would do so even if the opportunity arose, but somehow I still love them.

[R]etreats 4 Geeks. Thanks to which I just recently had a ridiculously good time hanging out with twelve awesome people in the mountains above Gatlinburg, TN. Runner-up: the fabulous [R]atfist.

[S]kynet. That’s my version of localhost, which means clicking the link will do you no good at all unless you did the same thing. (Skynet is also the SSID of my home wifi cloud, which makes a bit more sense.)

[X] had literally not a single guess. No, I don’t follow XKCD; I figure the really good ones will get tweeted and copied to hell and gone anyway, so I just rely on the collective to pre-filter for me. Apparently I haven’t been there recently. Make of that what you will.

[Z]azzle. Specifically the page for the “CSS IS AWESOME” mug, which I was considering buying because it’s not often you find an unalloyed song of praise to a CSS capability that no other Web technology has yet managed to duplicate. But then I remembered I don’t really drink mug-based liquids, so I passed. (And the T-shirts don’t make the content nearly big enough, so I passed again.)
